bush=<* so why does bush=potus. in short..daddy. I don't care what anyone thinks, I'm middle of the road, I have many feelings on many levels. Bush did a good job on the wtc stuff, I hate what he did with the 2nd terrorist bill, um...he's changed the way the future will be for the USA, and for the world. More so then many presidents did. Few other then through war, oppression, force, and stupidity do much. But I'd like to see a president that doesn't just talk fixing the national debt, social security welfare, peace, end of nuclear warfare, end of poverty, and hunger. Then do jack mother [censored] [censored] about it. Hey...I helped with this small part in this bill, hey I got these ppl to donate 1% of what's needed, small steps ppl. [censored]...small steps...is way of explaining that change is slow, maybe evolutionary. But really imo, the human race is not so horrible, that we can't just work alot of this [censored] out. Then again, we do get our advice on life from Hollywood, fashion, CNN, movies, and magazines. You know, sin is in, maybe the new thing to think about is how far a president has to go, for the U.S. to want impeachment, kinda like Hollywood divorces though...it's a [censored] guessing game. A game I don't like watching no less playing along with.

Well...presidents do got it hard, one person making the choice of a nation, what happened to for the ppl, by the ppl? It turned into, for the government from the ppl, by the government onto the ppl I guess. Though look at a president 3/4 the way through their presidency, then look at when they went in. Their face is drawn of blood, bags under the eyes, mad gray hair, yea...That's gotta be a hell of a job.

Originally posted by Esdil: Hmm, this is just an oberservation, but has anyone else noticed this thread praising bush is 1 only 2 pages long and 2 contains mostly insults. whilst the thread bashing bush is almost 6 pages long?

Did you read any of the comments on this thread.I'ts mixed some praises, also alot of bashing.

Well Esdil, The reason for this topic was because I wanted the bush supporters to have a chance to Give their views on bush. I thought it was only fair. I am not a bush supporter which is the reason for my sarcastic posts. However the good things people posted about bush are few and there is not very many differnt ones. It is also a way for me to display what type of president bush has been.

Das, When we refer to terrorist activity and 9/11 and Clinton. They are saying IF Clinton was still president during 9/11 he wouldn't have done anything. We are not saying he was president during that time.

In all fairness, No one knows for sure what Clinton would have done, If he were president during 9/11.

Naw, past physical actions, have nothing to do with making a choice for 100's of millions of people, to many people think they could "so easily" make that choice. Of who should die, and who should not. Who gets bombed, who doesn't. If you were sitting there with the footbal with the choice to nuke a country or not....you'd be shiting your pants;/ that's a warm cup of capucino for everyone.

the only way to predict future behavior is by one's actiosn from the past. No, I would not be shitting my pants. If I was running for president, I would consider ALL things and if I would be able to handle something like that. *I* personally feel as though I would be able to make the decision if I had all of the facts. I would sit down, and think very hard and come up with a decision, I wouldn't waste time shitting my pants. But, hey...that's just me.

President Bush Signs Healthy Forests Initiative into Law

December 8, 2003: President Bush Signs Historic Medicare Legislation

President Bush today joined a bipartisan group of lawmakers to sign into law the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003. This historic legislation will help to create a modern Medicare system, allow for the biggest improvements in senior health care in nearly 40 years, and provide seniors with prescription drug benefits and more choices in health care.

For the first time in the history of Medicare, a prescription drug benefit will be offered to all 40 million seniors and disabled Americans in Medicare to help them afford the cost of their medicines. Seniors will start seeing help quickly. Beginning next year, seniors will save 10-25% off the cost of most medicines through a Medicare-approved drug discount card which they can use at their local pharmacy. Since the typical senior spends $1,285 annually on his or her medicines, the card could save a senior who lacks drug coverage as much as $300 annually. The drug card will provide savings until the full drug benefit goes into effect. Beginning in 2006, seniors without coverage will be able to join a Medicare-approved plan that will cut their yearly drug costs roughly in half, in exchange for a $35 monthly premium. In many cases, the savings will be even greater. Seniors with no drug coverage and monthly drug costs of $200 will save more than $1,700 on drug costs each year. Seniors with no drug coverage and monthly drug costs of $800 will save nearly $5,900 on drug costs each year. Seniors will be protected against high out-of-pocket costs with Medicare covering 95% of drug costs over $3,600 per year.Low-income seniors will receive additional help paying for their medicines. A $600 annual subsidy will be added to their drug discount card. There will be no additional premium, no deductible and low co-payments ($2 for generic or $5 for brand-name drugs) for seniors with limited savings and incomes at or below 135% of poverty (individuals with yearly incomes under $12,123 and senior couples under $16,362). There will be reduced premium, a $50 deductible, and 15% co-insurance (85% of their drug costs would be covered) for seniors with limited savings and incomes between 135% and 150% of the federal poverty level (individuals with yearly incomes under $13, 470 and senior couples under $18,180).
